Kshell1, You are correct.

More of google's fault then samsung.

Google partnered with them for the device to promote the new android OS sure, but if they are the ones who actually chose the parts google isn't exactly great at it. The exynos was superior than the omap in every way

They probably went for initial compatibility and I wouldn't find it surprising that the exynos and androdi 4.0 had issues at first when it came to software/hardware integration. Or it could be something dealing with the fact that the Exynos was a galaxy S flagship chipset and samsung wanted to keep it that way.

except that it didn't support LTE. the 4460 is really not that far behind the Exynos 4210 if it is at all. my Droid Razr with it's 4430 gets 6200 on Antutu @ 1.2GHz and 3000 on Quadrant @ 1.2GHz. i don't understand why PA's Galaxy Nexus review units are always scoring so low.

Good point King on the LTE, but i typically get 8000 on antutu and 400 on quadrant with my e4gt.

the only way you're getting 8000 on Antutu with a Galaxy S II is if you're overclocked by like .3GHZ. your Quadrant is also abnormally high but not by much actually. i don't really put a lot of weight behind Quadrant scores anymore especially when it comes to a Samsung.

the I/O scores are pretty screwed up and i am over clocked by maybe 100mhz i haven't checked lately. I don't really OC much, last time i OC'd i went to 1.8ghz and battery life was horrible

yeah, with phones as powerful as ours going DOWN in voltage is probably the best course. xD

i underclocked mine to 1GHz but i didn't notice enough of a change in battery life to really justify it.

After i flashed starburst ROM over though and reoverclocked it, it was stable and had excellent battery life.

Wow. Downvoted 3 times for that? Was that post too articulate and substantive for you? Or is it that the truth just hurts?

I gotcha back hulk. That was a severe impairment they left out of the review. I think the PA writers have a bad habit of getting caught up in the hype when they're supposed to be objective.

Wow. You got downvoted, too. Someone has anger issues.

i got a Wildifre S and i am NEVER bored of its cheerful, cute and iconic design. i know how you feel....- i called my friend's Sensation XE's design boring as the choice of colours is just. Dull black..... or dull dark grey. Try putting on a lime green case on your Sensation and it would look better and much more eye pleasing!

Its OBVIOUSLY DIFFERENT!!!!

It's a One X with a memory card slot, a bigger battery, and a kickstand.

Still, it's stuck on Sprint's 3G network for now and it's prone to all the same issues the One X has, since it has the same hardware and software.

That means broken multitasking, sms notification issues, and e-mail push issues, none of which ever seems to get mentioned in any review.

Believe it or not, a quadrant score isn't the only determining factor in a device's performance.
